Theres a shitty flash game i spent years playing that ill never find again. Top down worms game very similar to vampire survivors in gameplay, only many years before it.
I’ve played on one of the fan servers and it was fine. if XIV has burned you out, and honestly I don’t blame you, not sure you’re going to find what you’re looking for in XI.
remember XI is a pre-WoW mmo so that means it’s quite difficult when compared to modern MMOs and plays like other MMOs of the day i.e. Everquest, Anarchy Online, Ultima, etc.
You’re not going to find as many new players and other players are going to be literally years/decades ahead of you. I’d suggest you try one of the fan servers first to see if you like it before spending money on the actual servers/game.
I did play for a bit in HorizonXI and liked it, but couldn’t find many players around (which made it even grindier than it should be), which is why I was wondering about retail.
I don’t mind the difficulty, that’s kinda why I’m tired of FFXIV. Outside of the endgame “high-end” trials/raids, I find its gameplay a bit too easy to the point of being boring. The jobs in XI also look more interesting and varied, instead of FFXIV’s that feel too samey.
I’m still looking for a mobile game where I played as a necromancer in a castle fighting off the stickman armies of king Otto through spells and by flicking them into the air. It culminated with the necromancer standing upon a pile of corpses topped by the king himself. I really liked that game but it honestly could be lost media.
Judging by the CRT monitor at 18 and the LCD at 23, I assume OP is around 40 now. Maybe they just omitted the ~17 years worth of panels where they got out of the house and did something else.
well over if they had a trubo button at ten. I would estimate upper forties like 47 but could be a bit younger. Under 45 and they were using some old stuff which would be wierd since that game system at 5 does not look atari. looks like an snes which would then make them 30 or so. I feel like lcd was gaining traction late oughts though which goes back to about 40.
Pretty sure that’s an NES - look closely at the controller, it’s got the 2 red buttons which were pretty iconic. That’d suggest they were 5 between about 1985 and 1990, which suggests they’re 40-45 now.
Old computer game, never have been able to remember the name. It was a sci-fi setting. I distinctly remember taking a ship of some sort and attacking multiple-legged walkers. I don’t think it was a Star Wars game. You didn’t just control the aerial vehicles as there were also grounds vehicles. You could change out weapons on the vehicle before the mission. There’s a line that has stuck with me though: “You’re replaceable, the (ship thing) isn’t”. I remember it coming in a PC game subscription service from the mid 90’s. I think the service was called SOMC or something along those lines. It’s where I also learned of SWARM and 7 Kingdoms. I still have yet to this day been able to find that sci-fi game, or even the subscription service (or evidence of its existence) again.
Racing game, late DOS, possibly early Windows. Three “eras” of American cars. There might have been loops. Cockpit-view only I believe. Possibly some sort of jet/boost.
I did this just yesterday, trying to find an ASCII Dracula game. Played it on a friend’s PC-like in the late 80s. I remember you controlled all the characters but could lose Mina and others during the game depending on your choices.
Remember going to the asylum to chat to Renfield to find clues to where Dracula was hiding
Try clicking through Category:Video games based on Dracula to see if any are in the approximately correct era and platform, and if the description rings the bell.
It took me FOREVER to find, but I was determined to find my old games. I assumed they were Sega Master System games, so I started watching videos like “best master system games” and such.
Then when I finally came across them, the memories all came rushing back like it was the 80s again! It’s so frustrating but when you finally find it, it’s such a good feeling.
For me it was Ignition, a top-down racing game where you could play as a police car, a school bus, an ambulance, a yellow car or a blue beetle car.
There was also another racing game I don’t remember the name of and likely never will, because it was a game that came on a blue floppy disk and actually was a 3D racing game, and all I remember is that it was a demo for a game that had you doing street races and it wasn’t open-world, it was with proper tracks and it was a level at sunset in a city, with no traffic. As far as I can tell, it shouldn’t really have been possible to have a fully 3D game on a floppy disk, but I guess since the game was just a demo, it could be squeezed down.
Ignition is one of the best in the top-down genre and arcade racing games overall, the mechanics work really well.
As for the other game: ‘Virtua Racer’ was released on Mega Drive (aka Genesis), and even Gameboy had some pure-3d racing games, though looking like crap. So it would definitely be possible to fit a 3d game on a floppy. However, I’m not so familiar with street racing games: you could try searching for a ‘DOS racing games’ compilation video on YouTube, if you played it in DOS.
In my high school, someone actually stripped down Quake 1 to have a handful of character models and iirc six multiplayer levels — so that the game fit on a floppy. This was copied and given out to people, and whenever the sysadmins removed the game from the class machines, it quickly found its way back again.
